Object Details
- Description
- This slogan was used on paper buttons worn by delegates at the 1977 National Women’s Conference who opposed the Equal Rights Amendment (ERA).

Demonstrators hoped to persuade members attending the American Lutheran Church convention to vote against supporting the ERA.
